Okay I used the example with the SWITCH and the CASE.
http://nullnetwork.com/php/

Though when I put http://nullnetwork.com/php/index.php
it takes me to

else{
echo "Binary:<br>

echo "this is default code muahahaha";
}
?>

(that's after all the CASES)

And I want it to be whatever is displayed at default, in this case 01. So if you go to the page http://nullnetwork.com/php/ you will be presented with the code from else {}

    the default in switch isnt actually a default, its more of an 'case else:'.. if that wasnt there, the script would just pause when $page wasnt = to 01,02 .. and that sucks 🙂 so thats why i put in a redirect there (or an error)

    the actual default (meaning nothing passed) is under the else because if there is no $page variable, it isntset -> sending it down there.. BUT if there is a $page variable and it doesnt = 01, or 02 -> it will goto the switch:default part..

      oh i get it now! thanks

      Now for the else {} part. Is there a way to display the same code as for default without rewriting the whole content ? Like a goto function. So if i only put /php/ (without index.php=01) it will automatically redirect me to index.php?page=01

        if you want it to do that, in the else part, put this code in

        // the else from if(isset($page)) //

}else{
 echo "<META http-equiv=\"Refresh\" content=\"0;URL=index.php?page=01\">";
// the 0 = delay, and URL is self-explanitory //
}

        i just figured it would be better if the index page was assumed as 01, imo its weird to open a page & redirect- see how you like it

          Appreciated.

          I was putting echo "<META http-equiv=\"Refresh\" content=\"1;URL=index.php?page=01\">"; but it kept refreshing, i guess that "0" meant something 😃. I just wanted to redirect it to 01 so it's easier for me visually (if that made sense haha). Again thanks 🙂
          I would never figure that out, even with a manual...just too many functions heh

            a few methods of redirecting:

            // 1.) echo javascript (or with js function) //
echo "<script>location=url;</script>";

// 2.) echo meta tag -> obv my fav  cause of the delay //
echo "<META http-equiv=\"Refresh\" content=\"1;URL=url\">";

// 3.) headers, i hate bc they must go before any output //
header("Location:url");

            theres a ton of things to do, but my fav is metas 🙂

              Thanks for the tips mate
              I tried

              header("Location:url");

              before but it said that the header was "already sent" 😕
              Would it be because there was some other code above ?

                if your code sends some text to the browser to dislpay it sends the headers and they can only be sent once...
                You can see if the headers have been sent using :
                boolean headers_sent ( void)

                  NB :

                  having HTML in the code will send the headers example :

                  ...?>
                  <img src="blah.gif">
                  <?...

                  will send the headers too

                  Good luck

                    that's why i was getting it, i was echoing something else hehe
                    😃 thanks
